Barack Obama doesn't simply want to "spread the wealth around" here in America: He's on record as favoring redistribution on a global scale. Profits, in Obama's view, don't help people - they hurt them. Whereas redistribution can fix all kinds of problems - including terrorism, a global scourge that Obama believes is actually a result

While our media sleep, the United Nations is proceeding, with President Obama's acquiescence, to implement a global plan to create a new international socialist order financed by global taxes on the American people.The Conference on the World Financial and Economic Crisis and its Impact on Development that begins on Wednesday will consider adoption of a document calling for "new voluntary and innovative sources of financing initiatives to provide additional stable sources of development finance..." This is U.N.-speak for global taxes. They are anything but "voluntary" for the people forced to pay them.The most "popular" proposals, which could generate tens of...

This Bill, sponsored by none other than our "President elect" Sen.

United Nations' Power Will Grow Under President Obama Our incoming president has many plans that will drastically affect our country but few are more insidious and far reaching than his legislation to address "global poverty." Obama said "Eliminating global poverty remains one of the greatest challenges we face, with billions of people around the world forced to live on just dollars a day. We can – and must – make it a priority of our foreign policy ..." While in the senate our president-elect Barack Hussein Obama (it's ok to use his middle name now) joined with RINO U.S. Senator...

Barack Obama doesn't simply want to "spread the wealth around" here in America: He's on record as favoring redistribution on a global scale. As the Democrat explained last year in Foreign Affairs, he thinks we need to be "sharing more of our riches to help those in need" around the world and promised to double American foreign assistance. He also proposed a multibillion-dollar Global Education Fund to eliminate what he calls the "global education deficit." Obama has already acted on these beliefs. In the Senate, he co-sponsored the Global Poverty Act, which calls on the US to allocate 7/10ths of...

“Election ‘08: Before friendly audiences, Barack Obama speaks passionately about something called “economic justice.” He uses the term obliquely, though, speaking in code — socialist code.” --Investor’s Business Daily Editorial "According to IBD, the bipartisan bill would require the president "to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy to further the U.S. foreign policy objective of promoting the reduction of global poverty, the elimination of extreme global poverty and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goal of reducing by one-half the proportion of people worldwide between 1990 and 2015, who live on less than $1 per day." The "Millennium Development Goal"...

With one socialist “bailout” bill apparently on the way to passage by Congress, two more are pending―both of them sponsored by Senator Barack Obama. One is the Jubilee Act, which would cancel as much as $75 billion worth of Third World debt, and the other is the Global Poverty Act, which would cost an estimated $845 billion. Total potential cost: $920 billion.

For those of you who are not familiar with The Global Poverty Act, of which Barack Obama is the lead sponsor, it is a tax on Americans which will total $845 billion (this is 0.7 percent of the Gross National Product). I doubt you will ever hear this discussed in any debates. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, our current population is 305,154,108 with 111,162, 259 U.S. households. If G.P.A. is enacted, our cost will be $2,800 per person or $7,800 per household.

Despite running into a censorship blockade in several media outlets, Brad O’Leary’s blockbuster new book, The Audacity of Deceit: Barack Obama’s War on American Values, is enjoying success thanks to the power of talk radio. The book’s website, http://www.barackobamatest.com/, is also spreading like wildfire. The site has exploded on the electoral scene and attracted over a quarter million visitors in just two weeks. All of this success has come despite Time Warner refusing to run paid print advertisements in the conglomerate’s Money and Fortune magazines. Surprisingly, paid advertising for the book was also rejected by nearly all Catholic diocesan newspapers...

Kabul, Afghanistan — This place should have had real appeal to Senator Barack Obama. The poverty of the Afghan people is evident everywhere. Wracked by decades of Soviet occupation, civil war and an oppressive Taliban theocracy, the country is a veritable centerpiece for one of Mr. Obama’s legislative objectives: a frontal assault on global poverty. Regrettably, when Senator Obama was here last week to play basketball for the cameras, neither he —nor any of the media sycophants traveling with him— mentioned the Global Poverty Act of 2007 (S.2433), legislation that he introduced on January 7, 2007. The bill – which...

S.2433 is the bill that will transfer $800B USD to the UN to combat global poverty. It is the OAIW's (Obama Administration In Waiting)first attempt in transferring our wealth out of the US. This amounts to OVER $7000 for every man, woman and child in America. (please note correction from my previous post) I'm contacting every political talk show host I know, as well as multiple members of congress to defeat this measure, but the most effective means will be to get several major polls from across America. With the current economic situation, this bill should be a huge loser...

It is not humane to burden the American taxpayer with billions in additional foreign aid. It is more than unacceptable. And moreover, if history is to be our guide, these monies often wind up lining the pockets of third-world tyrants and bureaucrats who hate America and do very little to help those who are truly in need -- remember the Oil for Food scandal! The American people will be watching and will not tolerate massive United Nations-inspired giveaways that are passed in the dark of night -- or in broad daylight for that matter. Expose S. 2433 for what it...

The U.S. Senate soon could be debating whether you, your spouse and each of your children – as well as your in-laws, parents, grandparents, neighbors and everyone else in America – each will be spending $2,500 or more to reduce poverty around the world. The plan sponsored by Sen. Barack Obama, the presumptive Democratic nominee for the office of president, is estimated to cost the United States some $845 billion over the coming few years in an effort to raise the standard of living around the globe. S.2433 already has been approved in one form by the U.S. House of...

The bill, formerly HR.1302, has passed the House and will soon hit the floor of the senate as S.2433. A brief summation: the United States has to end world poverty. 7% of our GDP has to be allocated to this end.

This bill would commit the United States to spending 0.7% of its gross national product on foreign aid, in addition to that $16.3 billion. 0.7% comes out to $845 billion dollars over 13 years. Obama wants another $65 billion a year or, around $2000 per American citizen in new taxes a year, for fighting poverty in third world countries. Another troubling detail in the bill is our requirement to coordinate "the goal of poverty reduction with other internationally recognized Millennium Development Goals." The "Millennium Development Goals" are a United Nations creation, and according to Cliff Kincaid, means you could lose...

The Global Poverty Act of 2007 (S.2433) is coming up for a Senate vote sometime after the July 4 recess, according the office of Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison. Once Harry Reid and the Democrat leadership put it on the calendar, we could have as little as a week to prepare for the vote. The bill is sponsored in the Senate by Barack Obama. If passed, it will cost taxpayers $845,000,000,000 over the next 13 years, in addition to our current foreign aid expenditures. And the best part is that it will be administered in conjunction with...brace yourselves...the United Nations. The...

Of Witches, Warlocks, Jesuits, and Obama by: Cliff Kincaid, June 26, 2008 While Senator Barack Obama struggles to keep the public in the dark about the nature of his pro-U.N. Global Poverty Act, a recent “Bay Area Interfaith Leaders’ Luncheon” was held to lobby for Senate passage of the bill, whose cost has been estimated at $845 billion. An actual witch who spoke at a “Pagan Pride” festival in San Francisco was one of the listed participants. The witch, known as the “Elder Donald Frew” of the “Wiccan Community,” was interviewed by the Reverend Don Lewis of “Witch School International”...

"Suppose you were an idiot and suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself." --Mark Twain "World Poverty, Begone!"Paging Senator Canute? Almost 1000 years ago, standing on the beaches of England, King Canute commanded the tides to go back out to sea. A crowd watched as the tide ignored him; the water lapping at his feet--as he knew it would. Canute put on the demonstration to highlight the limits of his power. Canute spoke these words to remind his advisers where he stood in the cosmic scheme of things: "Let all men know how empty and worthless...

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Accuracy in Media editor Cliff Kincaid disclosed today that a hugely expensive bill called the "Global Poverty Act," sponsored by Democratic Senator Barack Obama, was quickly passed by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Wednesday and could result in the imposition of a global tax on the United States. Kincaid said that the major media's cover-up of the bill, which makes levels of U.S. foreign aid spending subservient to the dictates of the United Nations, demonstrates the media's desire to see Senator Obama elected to the presidency. In a column posted on the AIM web...
